How does it work, in my everyday, to live freed from the American Dream? Is it even possible?&quot; This is exactly what my heart is working through, constantly breathing and mulling and seeking. It&#39;s the daily walk as well as the overall realigning of life dreams and I&#39;m not quite there yet. But I feel the change... <br />Thanks for sharing. :) EvelynRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406847087034128432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1972122582860474393.post-43077829847968372892014-10-11T08:11:02.931-04:002014-10-11T08:11:02.931-04:00My house is a mess right now, but I admit I do no...My house is a mess right now, but I admit I do not like it. I still want the American Dream. Maybe I should give up wanting it? No, I can&#39;t! LOL However, I know exactly what &quot;Christian women&quot; you&#39;re talking about, and I certainly don&#39;t fit with them either--I&#39;ve adopted 12 kids. Anyway, your post brightens my day, and gives me plenty to think about. Keep preaching it.

Then I read this. And, as usual, I am undone. You see, your 31 days of Going was (and still is) instrumental in my obedience to a dream &amp; different way of life and your life also strengthens me when my faith gets all wonky &amp; I want to turn back. So thank you for sharing your life, your love, your gift of words with us. And thank you for whispering faith to others who are struggling in the cobwebby hours of the night to give words to their struggle. Would be honored if you had time to peak at mine. Interestingly enough, it is a (can&#39;t find the right word) opposite of your path in that we are leaving the comforts of culdesac Christianity in the suburbs to buy a farm in the wrong part of town amidst poverty and just a small wrong turn from danger. But you&#39;ll have to read more about our plans for the land on the old bloggity. Too much to write here and we are still fleshing it all out. White knuckles and all.http://garrison-serendipity.blogspot.com/2014/10/31-days-of.htmlMistyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02503093007029008743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1972122582860474393.post-29150548545586167002014-10-07T20:29:21.514-04:002014-10-07T20:29:21.514-04:00Girl.

I can tell you that change is so very hard. Just when you think you have settled into a new life.. with all it&#39;s changes... something causes the pain of change to raise it&#39;s head.. a head that you thought was long forgotten. I pray that God will surround you and your beautiful family with those who can help the healing continue.... it takes time. Allow God to be enough.. but don&#39;t lament that you seem to step backward. He is there.. before you and behind you. You are doing a beautiful work of God.Jane Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01580843946973217095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1972122582860474393.post-419158845332497722014-10-07T11:27:07.436-04:002014-10-07T11:27:07.436-04:00One more thing.

Because of you I wrote for 31 days in 2012 and for 31 days is 2013 (only it ended up being January 2014). There is nothing quite like it and I&#39;m praying and thinking on my subject for 2015 (somehow January works better for me, who cares if I&#39;m not like everyone else? I knew that already anyway!) :) So. Thank you for inspiring me. Over and over you have inspired me!! That is all.Bethany Eicher https://www.blogger.com/profile/00279586692972368906noreply@blogger.com
